>> Find out how pedestrian and public transit friendly your home-to-be is at a glance. Estately’s a website that mashes up real estate listings with eco-lifestyle aspirations for the walking, cycling, public transit-taking environmentalist.
>> See the greenest way to travel at a glance — sort of. Trip Footprint’s a new website that lets you easily compare the environmental impact of various modes of travel, but figuring out the best way to travel isn’t so cut and dry as Trip Footprint’s bottom-line statements like “You should definitely drive. Even a typical SUV is better than the best plane!”

Read it, then support a strong public option! “It’s the public option that has become the heart of the fight, because it’s the public option that would most fundamentally reshape the market through which Americans get healthcare.”
>> Door to door recycling ed. An all-women group’s educating people living in Manhattan’s public housing to recycle. Watch the heartwarming video about their work below. (via everydaytrash)
